PS5 Pro at GameStop: refurbished unit listed at $1,399.99, 55% above new

The PS5 Pro at GameStop is now listed, in the white refurbished digital version, at $1,399.99. That is about 55.56% above the official price of a new console, $899.99. The gap, reported on Wednesday by IT Home citing Tom's Hardware, is a $500 premium over Sony's current MSRP.

What the PS5 Pro at GameStop price sheet shows

A store employee posted an internal pricing table on Reddit. Community moderators confirmed the author's identity. The document says used consoles will cost more than new ones and describes the arrangement as intentional. IT Home says GameStop's page was updated at 3 a.m. Eastern on October 6.

  • White digital PS5 Pro (SKU 416,576): refurbished retail at $1,399.99 and a trade-in value of $800.
  • Disc model, 30th anniversary disc edition and Wolverine disc variants: $1,499.99 resale and $850 trade-in.
  • Anniversary and Wolverine digital editions: $1,399.99 and an $800 trade-in.

Those trade-in figures already sit above the PS5 Pro's 2024 launch price of $699.99. Tom's Hardware and CE-Sphere report that GameStop raised the refurbished price from about $800 to $1,399.99.

Why used costs more than new

New consoles at the official price are hard to find. Sony, GameStop and Target list the model at $899.99 but show it out of stock. IT Home says some new units at large retailers reach about $1,500. GameStop has not explained the used-price increase.

Sony already raised the official price to $899.99 in April 2026, citing memory costs. Tom's Hardware and TechPowerUp treat the case as a snapshot of the global DRAM shortage: data-center demand for HBM has pushed factory capacity toward server chips. CE-Sphere also notes the approach of GTA 6, on pre-sale since June, as extra pressure on console stock.

What it means in practice

Shoppers looking for a PS5 Pro at GameStop in the United States can find a refurbished unit priced above the sticker of a new console that is not actually on the shelf. There is no confirmation that the same table applies outside the US. Sources: IT Home and CE-Sphere.
